Peace and Blessings Miquel,

I am so looking forward to seeing you. I resigned from Lakeside
Behavioral Healthcare and full time ministry and the full time
position there in the children's unit was just too stressful. I am
enjoying the blessings of Ramadan and expecting Allah's guidance and
direction.

Fondly,
Imam Sykes
